Never Giving Up
There's so much I want to tell you,
yet I can't seem to spit out the words,
you come and go like I walk away
and then you bury me in the dirt.
Reminiscing on those nights,
our sleepless talks-
those days you'd spontaneously visit just to see my smile,
those days where'd I'd go that extra mile-
I trusted
your word.
Now those days seem so far away
they're lost in a mirror image
of soundtracks, still images that remain locked in my memory.
That's all you ever were,
solely a memory.
And there's times where I miss your arms around me,
then there's times I despise your embrace,
because you gave up,
couldn't do it
and left me to move on.
Then once I did, you came running back
instead of sweeping me off my feet,
you knew I was already swept,
always will be,
always have
cause I'm never really over you
yet I never can reveal my secret.
